He walked the hall
Deathly quiet
With a black book in hand
He wore a black floor length robe
He knew the times
When each life ceased
You see he was
The soul collector
But you know him
Best as the grim reaper.
Today
He was on a mission
To take a soul
On its journey home.
A soul of his choice.
And there she stood
Looking out the window
Her skin pale
Contrasting her raven hair.
Jade green eyes
Looked almost lifeless
As she watched the blossoms
Of the sakura trees
blow in the breeze
She smiled seeing him
As he reached for her
"You came for me..
I am glad..."
She died as she took his hand
As he led her away
He cherished her soul
So he sat on the throne
Waiting to start the next mission
However he wont be alone
The soul he took
He chose for his bride
His angel of darkness
The only comfort
For his eternally tormented soul.
So she is called
Angel of silence
Always watching
What others do
Not saying anything
Walking among humans
Always shrouded in darkness
Her eyes barely readable
To those who knew of her exsistance
People feared
What they would find
So they never spoke to her
When the time came
However
People did not dare
Approach her
For she had seen their life
Weither she deemed them worthy
Of continuing to draw breath
She did not care
Angel of silence
She was dubbed
But more effective name
The Angel of Death
For your life may be next
To end on this final day
Good luck in life
I hope you see
You will end up facing
Evangelium de Silenti
Among the clouds
Soars a beautiful
Free spirit
In the form
Of the Mighty Hawk
Its wings stretched
Twords the heavens
Body warmed by the rays of the sun
Sharing your sky
With your equally majestic
Brother eagle.
Your cry resounds
In many minds
Dipping low
While in flight
People marvel at your beauty.
Stay in flight
Stay free
But look down
And guide those
That wish to be like you
Live Free.
Walking among
The mighty forest trees
I feel something calling out to me
As I draw closer I see a man
Dressed in traditional buckskin
As I watch him
He moves his hand
As if wanting me to join him
Beside the fire.
I walk forward slowly
As if in awe of this man
As he speaks
I watch the flames dance
To his words
He spoke of a time
Where buffalo ran free
Across the plains
Peaceful plains
That rolled in the winds.
He spoke of a man
Who had a warrior spirit
He was the son of a mighty chief
He was devoted to his tribe
He sacrificed himself to protect them
I saw images of this warrior
In my mind as the flames
Entranced me with its
Hypnotic dance
This man in the flames
Did not look like the man
Who was speaking
It was as if this image
Was nestled in my heart
For there he stood
A man proud
And tall
With the spirit of a warrior
When the story was told
The storyteller smiled
"You have found your Spirit Warrior...."
He turned
And walking away
He disappeared
What was he
A ghost?
A spirit guide?
But I did
Find him
My Spirit Warrior.
